Good riddance?
If someone finds the site, signes up for six games, then finds they cannot move in them I guess they wouldn't stick around for long.
Good riddance to potential subscribers.

Destined to be abused.
Many people here won't time out opponents on holiday, but I've seen it happen many times that someones loads too much hay on their forks - switch on the vacation sign and then move at leisure, hoping that they won't be timed out.
I voted no, because I like games to go quickly and I don't care if I get TO in any games when I'm on vacation.
Apparently there are people who care.
Maybe this will stop the bitching and moaning every other month when someone got timed out when their dad was in hospital or they went to band camp etc. etc.
I don't think it will and therefore is a waste of time.

Copy and pasted from my post in another thread:
If it was not possible to skull when someone was on vacation then we would notice a massive rise in the number and length of people's vacations.
X doesn't want to lose to Y even though the position is completly lost, he likes his 1700 rating and doesn't want to resign and go back to 1680, his timeban hile Y watches in anger as X is moving every day in every other game whilst on 'vacation'.
